Expecting a long, drawn-out process, with a lot of tiresome questions, I cannot speak more highly of how my claim has been organised and dealt with, with the minimum of fuss. At its conclusion, and the award confirmed, reasons and explanations were given outlining the reasons, why's, and wherefore's, for the amount offered. I could not disagree, and every point was understood. From beginning to end, Winston Solicitors have been open and clear about everything, and though the award is hardly life changing at £3,750, it has made me content to feel that the grievous assault on me has awarded me some personal satisfaction after the Crown Court sentence gave me very little. Thank you Keertan and all at Winston Solicitors.

After reaching out to the firm for help at a really scary time, Rachel Mason was brilliant. I needed to keep a handle on my costs in case matters escalated and so my case was handled by Rachel Mason. She was absolutely fantastic - she was always on hand to answer any of my queries along the way, in a clear and calm way that always left me feeling heard and reassured. She prepared brilliant written submissions to the investigating officer and gave such sensible and clear advice on the best strategy to take, which ultimately resulted in the investigation being dropped. She was cool and calm throughout, holding her nerve with waiting out the very long process of the police investigation and so reassuring when I felt scared along the way. She explained everything so well and communicated clearly and quickly in response to my queries, no matter how busy she was. Her knowledge and strategic advice was fantastic. She was also so empathetic, kind and understanding throughout. I would whole-heartedly recommend Rachel to anyone who finds themselves in the position of needing advice from a criminal solicitor.

Urfan Dar is one of the foremost professional experts in Criminal Law. I cannot thank him enough for his knowledge of case law and impeccable arguments used during my case, which led to an extremely positive outcome. In addition, he provided me with personal support and has always been available when needed. I am very impressed and can’t recommend him highly enough.

Where do I start. I was charged and remanded for the alleged offence of kidnap. My life was put on hold and I was placed in forest bank HMP. I was innocent. Wrongly accused and truly distraught. Being placed in an environment where I was scared & angry. Loretta helped me remain positive throughout my experience to the point. She stood her ground and when needed kept me in line. Which I truly respect. I am grateful for all she did for my family and myself and ultimately appreciate all the hard work she & my barrister put in. Forcing the prosecution to drop the case. As there was no evidence. So all I can truly say is. THANK YOU
